Important announcement from John Solomos, President & CEO BlueBird iT Solutions
From Digitizing Healthcare to Shaping Its Future: A New Era for BlueBird iT Solutions Inc.
Twenty years ago, I walked away from an executive career at Dell, in pursuit of a vision to help bring Canadian healthcare into the digital age. From my basement, I founded BlueBird iT Solutions with a singular mission: help doctors transition from paper to Electronic Medical Records (EMRs), laying the foundation for a modernized healthcare system. What started as a bold leap of faith has grown into a remarkable journey of impact, trust, and innovation.
BlueBird iT has been the silent force integrating technology into clinics and Canadian healthcare infrastructure—ensuring doctors have reliable, secure, and efficient systems to provide the best possible patient care. From digitizing medical records to building and supporting the infrastructure that enables modern healthcare technology, we have shaped the backbone of Canada’s digital health evolution.
Technology cannot function in isolation. AI, EMRs, and digital applications are only as effective as the networks and hardware that power them. We architect, build, deploy, manage, monitor and support the digital environments where healthcare technology lives. We establish the networks and systems that connect doctors to the tools they depend on—serving as the bridge to the digital healthcare universe.
I’m thrilled to announce our partnership with WELLSTAR—a milestone that amplifies our mission and sets the stage for BlueBird iT to evolve from Canada’s trusted IT leader in healthcare to a global force in HealthTech. This step builds on the successes we’ve achieved with our customers and partners while unlocking emerging technologies like AI, automation, and advanced Provider Solutions.
None of this would have been possible without those who believed in us from the start:
Our Doctors – Thousands of physicians and clinicians who trusted us to digitize their practices, many from the days when we were just a basement operation.
Our Esteemed Partners – OntarioMD, TELUS Health, OceanMD, QHR Technologies, DELL and WELL Health - your collaboration has been instrumental, and we remain committed to growing together.
Together, we’ve driven EMR adoption from under 10% to over 90%, fundamentally transforming Canadian healthcare. This wasn’t just a shift from paper to digital—it positioned Canada for the next evolution of healthcare, unlocking the potential for technology to revolutionize patient outcomes.
Our partnership with WELLSTAR is not a shift away from the relationships that got us here—it’s a continuation of the work we started. Our commitment to healthcare IT, our partners, and our clients remains unwavering.
The future of healthcare technology is evolving, and together, we are building something extraordinary.
The best is yet to come.
